VESSELS (Feature Service Svorts Editor) NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—Many a season will have come and gone before American baseball fans forget the 1928 edition of the national pastime There were torrid battles the penants in about eve: from the for thing three-games-a-week circuits up to the major loops where the championships were in the balance right up to the final week. At least two minor leagues fin- ished in a tie and the contest for the National League flag was so close one week from the fin- ish that arrangements were made for a playoff in case of a tie. The Pacific Coast League sea- son concluded with San Fran- cisco and Sacramento deadlocked at the top of the standing. And five days before the season end- ed, three clubs—San Francisco, Sacramento and Hollywod—were tied for the lead. The Georgia- Alabama League was the other circuit closing the regular playing schedule with two teams—Anniston and Talla- dega—tied. | New high marks for the tem- perature of International League pennant races were set this year. Rochester finally won out, with a one-point advantage over Buf- falo. A week before the finish, Rochester, Buffalo and Taronto were grouped at the top, with one-half game covering the dif- ference in the standing of the three. In the American Association, another Class AA league, Indi- anapolis and Minneapolis battled during the eclosing two weeks with first cne and then the other out in fronmt. The major league season was climaxed by a National League race that stood out as the cir- cuit’s warmest contest in 20 years. And Philadelphia’s game bid for the American League championship provided, the jun- ior loop with a fascinating flag fight. Perhaps it all was good con- ditioning for Old Joe Fan for _ the big worlds series and a Hotl Stove season that promises to be brimful of big shakeups and trades in which managers, os well as players, will be d _puthlessly. llnnuon of the FIGUREDIOUT / hrough with the mad race, 0ld Joe Fan A gnat's nightie could have nd minor league ‘races, COAST LEAGUE GAME HOT ONE ON YESTERDAY Sacramento Wins — Man- | ager Ousted from Feld —Umpire Carried Off | | SACRAMENTO, Cal, Oct, 12.—| In a game rivalling the tenseness | of the World Series and punctuat- ed with one of the wildest innings the Sacramento fans ever witness. ed, the Senators defeated the Seals yesterday afternoon by a score of 8 to 7 in the second championship playoff game. Six runs were scored by the Senators in the fourth inning, |bringing out the Police force and causing Manager Williams being {ousted from the field and Umpire |Fanning being carried off. | The fireworks started when Man. rager Williams, of San Francisco, disputed the umpire's decision and ’was ordered off the field. ‘The bases were loaded and Roh. jwer cleared them with a home run, | Thereupon Pitcher Jacobs hurled the ball ostensibly to the cateher,| hitting Umpire Fanning below the ! knee and he had to be carried from the field. f Harry Williams, President of the [ Pacific Coast League,” annouacec | after the game that Jacobs would | /be ficed. > e \CULT BALL TEAM IS HARD PRESSED BY IMPOSTERS i BENTON Cect. 12— -Scven House of Davi! jare home af'n~ miles ¢ 80, cf 171 games!

Washington, Oregon, Idaho, North and Svuth Dakota, Minneso- ta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan, Canada The seven players who return- ed with him are the best of his lot, Thorpe said, and around them he will build next year's team. p It has been his experjence that at least half of the team ‘“em- brace the faith” only long enough to play ball, and then get a hair cut and shave and take “French leave.” - ee—— CHICAGO, Oct. 12, — Justin Dart, veteran Northwestern Uni- versity football guard, turned down a trip to Europe this year 50 he could work as a laborer conditioning himself for this year's gridiron season.
